Does anyone know the difference between the Dell C6220 and the Dell C6220 II?

On the web site, the V2 version supports 10 core chips while the older one does not. Is that a permanent "hardware" or a fixable "BIOS" difference? Any other differences?

I talked to a Dell source on this about a year ago.

The V2 supported V2 chips and he mentioned there being some type of switch chip in the back plane. Sounded more that just BIOS.
